locating the Station. Col. R. w. Simp.
son made strong speech advocating the
Agricultural College, and also the Sta.
ton. He favored securing either or both
of them for this section of the State.
he desired to see the Station located on
a tract of land adjoining the historic
Fort Hill plantation, aud thought we
ought to deal with one question at q
time. he favored earnestly striving for
the location of the Agricultural Station.
Col. E. M. Rucker also advocated both
the College and the Station.
Capt. J. Perry Glenn made strong
statement of the advantages of the loca.
ton proposed by Col. Russell.
Gen. W. W. Humphreys also made
pointed and forcible presentation of the
advantages of securing the location of
the Agricultural Station. after which the
following resolutions were adopted:
Resoloed, That it is the judgment of
this meeting of the farmers of Anderson
County that the Agricultural Stations,
provided for at the last session of the
General Assembly, should not be located
until after the next meeting of the Gen
eral Assembly, when the situation, ss
changed by the passage Of the Agricul
tural Education Bill by Congress, can be
considered and provided for by the Leg.
islature, and such additional offers as
may be prepared and made in connection
Herewith from different sections of the
State can be received-particularly as no
practical purpose can deserved by imme-
diate location.
Resolued, That a Committee of one
from each township be appointed to
solicit assistance and subscriptions in
order to secure, if possible, the Location
of the experimental Station in our midst.
Resolued, That the Committee on sub
scriptions keep two lists of subscription.
one to be for the Station at amy point fixed
by the coming mass meeting, and anoth-
or for any special location which may
be favored.

have tested Stages Steam Drip Coffee
Pot thoroughly, or more properly "cotfee
distiller''-it really distills the coffee-and
think it the most complete invention that
have ever seen. Coffee made in it, by the
preservation of the aroma and the very oil
of the coffee grain, conduces to the health
and makes an exhilerating and palatable
beverage, whilst boiled coffee, by expelling
the oil and boiling out the aroma, becomes
an upwholesome decoction which must
eventually produce dyspepsia and other at
tendant ills. French physicians, and many
physicians in this country have long since
discarded the use of boiled coffee for the
above reasons. 1t is to be hoped that your
coffee distiller may be universally adopted.

7. PUBLIC MEETING.

The meeting Of the citizens Of Anler-
son County called BY Col. d. K, Norris
"a President Of the Anderson County
4 FarmeB, Convention, met in the Court,
House on last Monday, was called to
order By Col. Norris, npon whose sugges..
tion Hon, B. F. Crayton iwas called upon
70 preside, and Mr.. W. Ar Geer was
requested to act as: Secretary. Col.
9Faytqn stated the object Of the meet.
lng 70 be the consideration of the PRO.
priety Of making an effort to secure.
She location Of one of the Agricultural
Stations in Anderson County, and
expressed his interest in the object of The
meeting, and hoped that the effort to
secure the location foriAnderson County
might prove successful. Col. T. 81. Rus.
sell ststed that he SAW Senator Murray
present, and moved that he be invited
70 state the scope of the Act fol. estab-
fishing the Agricultural Stations, and
give his views as 10 the same. MI.
Murray responded, stating that the Act,
Us originally introduced in the House,
contemplated founding one Agricultural
Station, with an ultimate idea OF making
,it the nuclenso of the Agricultural College,
u one should be founded. 1t had been
amended il the Kouse by providing for
the establishment eflwo Stations, one in
the up-country and one in the low
country, on the. plea that experiments
made in cne part Of the State would be
nearly worthless in the other. He
thought, however, that the leading rea-
son the Station was divided was to
dissipate the chances of establishing ar
Agricultural. College. The Act provides
for the making Of experiments in crops,
analysis of soils, &c, to disseminate
scientific knowledge in Agriculture. He
Thought it desirable that the location
Of the Agricultural Stations ought to be
postponed until after the next session
Of the Legislature, because it was now
too late to accomplish anything this year.
It would only result in spending the
money to locate the Station now, without
getting any compensating advantages.
Congress has also passed the bill 10
appropriate money 10 aid agricultural
education, and it would be better to have
etheflaw passed 80 as to take advantage Of
these appropriations before locating the
Stations. He hoped, however, that this
meeting would take immediate steps to
compete for the location, if the Board OF
agriculture decline to postpone location.
Col. Russell stated that he was highly
IN favor of securing the location for this
section, and had in his mind piece of
property that was very desirably situated,
slying on the line of Anderson and Pick
ems; aud midway between Greenville and
Oeonee. Il embraced most valuable
piece Of land within easy reach of the
8 Air Fine Railrcad, and could and would
be- supplemented BY as much land as
was necessary for the purpose of the
! Station. He also advocated the estab.
a1ishment Of the Agricultural College,

Stages Coffee Pot, and find it to be superior
to anything of the kind that I have ever
